We worked with Kevin in purchasing a home. He works only part-time as a realtor so his schedule is not very flexible, and instead of him sending us listings of houses, we ended up researching homes for sale and e-mailing him the ones we were interested in. That would've been fine, except we felt pressured to make offers too quickly and at a higher price than we wanted. He did not provide COMPS (again, we did the research ourselves)...and in the end, we felt that he was not really interested in finding us the right home (that was best for us), so we decided to look for another full-time realtor. We found a great one, and she was very patient, professional, accommodating with her time...and she was able to find us a great home for a great value. We're not saying that Kevin is a horrible realtor, but his experience is more of a selling agent...and maybe he'll be good for buyers who already know what they're doing and know the house they want. We would not recommend him for first-time buyers or those who want to take their time in finding the right home. |
